My Laundry Question

Is it okay to wash a fake fur blanket that is 100% polyester, even though is says dry clean? It doesn't say dry clean only, it just says dry clean. Everything about it is 100% polyester. I will really appreciate your time and consideration regarding this matter. Thank you! I'm am not sure what else to write, but it says I need at least to write at least 200 letters. I hope this is enough. Thank you again!**************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************

I have just the information you need on how to wash fake fur. The trick is to not allow the "fur" to tangle and mat and avoid high heat. With care, it should work just fine.
